6.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Thomas Richter <tmricht@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit f55bd479d8663a4a4e403b3d308d3d1aa33d92df ] Reservation of the PMU hardware is done at first event creation and is protected by a pair of mutex_lock() and mutex_unlock(). After reservation of the PMU hardware the memory required for the PMUs the event is to be installed on is allocated by allocate_buffers() and alloc_sampling_buffer(). This done outside of the mutex protection. Without mutex protection two or more concurrent invocations of perf_event_init() may run in parallel. This can lead to allocation of Sample Data Blocks (SDBs) multiple times for the same PMU. Prevent this and protect memory allocation of SDBs by mutex.
